In Douluo Continent, I am the mastermind behind the scenes.

Chapter 84. A Soul from Another World

Everyone understands the principle of a cunning rabbit having three burrows. If circumstances allowed, Dai Hao and Xu Lin would love to have Dai Ruoxi inherit the title of Duke of White Tiger and send Dai Huabin to the Body Sect. At that time, no matter who wins in the end, the lineage of White Tiger will not be broken.

Unfortunately, Qin Yi was not interested in Dai Mubai's descendants, and the Body Sect would never accept the descendants of the White Tiger lineage.

Meanwhile, in a room on the top floor of the Starlight Hotel.

Qin Yi locked himself in his room and fiddled with the lifelike puppet. To be honest, the instruction manual for the lifelike puppet was giving him a headache. If it weren't for the difficulty of operating it, he wouldn't have put this thing on the auction stage.

After a long process, Qin Yi finally succeeded in bringing the lifelike puppet to life, and a green-haired girl wearing a light green lotus leaf dress appeared in front of Qin Yi.

"Please bestow a name upon us, Master!"

The green-haired girl knelt directly in front of Qin Yi. "A product of the system, guaranteed to be top-notch." Inside the lifelike puppet's shell lay a genuine female soul, one that the system had just pulled from another timeline. Qin Yi was certain it was probably a female villain from some parallel universe's Douluo Continent.

Bibi Dong? Qian Renxue? Hu Liena? The Demon Emperor? Nanali? Or perhaps another female supporting character who died of old age?

"Can you tell me... your name in your past life?" Qin Yi asked thoughtfully.

"In my past life..." A touch of sadness appeared on the green-haired girl's pretty face. Just as she was about to speak, Qin Yi covered her mouth.

"If you don't want to say it, then forget it. From today onwards, your name will be... Azi, Mu Xinzi. As my wife, Qin Yi's wife, you no longer need to consider yourself a servant."

As he spoke, Qin Yi carried Azi directly onto the bed. Azi seemed to sense something, and a look of panic flashed in her eyes, but her body honestly assumed the correct position.

( words omitted here)

Ten minutes later, looking at the girl foaming at the mouth on the bed, Qin Yi shook his head, put a storage bracelet on Azi's left wrist, and then threw her into the temple, letting her cultivate on her own.

Too weak, really too weak. Azi, whose cultivation level is only level 31, couldn't even last ten minutes... But when the meat is right in front of you, how can you not eat it? Qin Yi didn't consider himself a gentleman.

And... does that feeling really just feel like a lifelike puppet?

【Azi】

Gender: Female

【age:?????】

[Soul Power: Level 31]

First Martial Soul: Scythe of Destruction

Second Martial Soul: Scepter of Life

[Cause of death: Pierced through the heart simultaneously by the Golden and Silver Dragon Spears]

[Applicable Deities: Yin and Yang]

"Yin and Yang are mutually generative and mutually destructive, and all things cycle endlessly. Perhaps only the laws of Yin and Yang... can unite the forces of life and destruction in this world?"

"Hmm? A month has already passed. I wonder how the Soul Master Competition is going, and whether anyone has died."

Qin Yi was not worried about the safety of Qin Xue and the others. With Poison Undying, this human nuclear bomb around, even if the Sun Moon Empire wanted to touch them, they would have to think twice.

After taking a quick cold shower and changing into clean clothes, Qin Yi finally left the room, satisfied.

At Xingluo Square, over 90% of the seats in the rest area were removed by Xingluo officials, leaving only sixteen teams, eight of which were in the youth group.

Is this... a quarter-final match?

"The first match of the quarterfinals, junior group: Spirit Hall team vs. Shrek Academy team!"

As the host's voice resounded throughout Star Luo Square, everyone's expression instantly turned solemn. After ten thousand years, the Shrek Academy team and the Spirit Hall team met again on the Soul Master Competition stage.

This time... will the Shrek Academy team successfully defend their title, or will the Spirit Hall team successfully avenge their defeat?

Qin Yi's arrival led to some changes in the rules of the Soul Master Competition. In the third round of elimination matches, the previously illogical individual elimination matches were canceled, and a team match was used to determine the winner.

The winner advances to the next round, while the loser will be eliminated from the Soul Master Tournament.

In this life-or-death match, Huo Yuhao defied all opposition and substituted Tang Ya, Mo Lian, and Xu Fengxian, taking three Tang Clan assassins—Tang Ba, Tang Jiu, and Tang Shi—into the arena.

On the Soul Battle Stage, the members of the Shrek Academy team and the Spirit Hall team glared at each other. This was a matter of dignity for both sides, and neither wanted to give up easily.

"Both sides are ready, the match...begins!"

As soon as the referee finished speaking, all fourteen team members entered the Martial Soul Possession state and activated their respective amplification abilities.

"Black Rhino Armor...Combined!"

"The Realm of Light and Darkness... Activate!"

With the activation of the Thousandfold Radiant Dark Domain, the entire Soul Arena was vertically divided into two areas, one half light and one half darkness. The effect of the light area was equivalent to that of the Angelic Domain. Tang Ba, Tang Jiu, and Tang Shisan, standing in the dark area, felt their bloodlust being amplified step by step.

Tang Shi finally lost control of his emotions. Suddenly, his eyes turned bloodshot, he was panting heavily, and he brandished his large Guan Dao... charging towards the Spirit Hall team's ranks.

Seeing this, Huo Yuhao hurriedly turned around and shouted in Chen Yu's direction, "Sister Yu, quick, stop him!"

Chen Yu hurriedly used "Life Return" to stretch out her hair, wrap it around Tang Shi's waist, and dragged him back.

With the infusion of life force, Tang Shi's eyes regained their clarity.

One thought can make you an angel, another a demon. Is this... the true meaning of the angel of light and darkness?

With no other option, the Shrek team members had to switch positions, with Huo Yuhao and Xu Sanshi, two "determined" members, standing in the dark area.

After the Shrek team adjusted their positions, the Spirit Hall team launched their attack.

"Light and darkness intertwine, gods and demons are slain!"

Qian Chongxin brandished her two longswords and charged into the Shrek team's ranks. She hadn't gone far when Xu Sanshi blocked her way.

At the same time, Bei Bei took the initiative to approach Qian Xun Huan, and the two engaged in a fierce battle.

As per the pre-arranged plan, Chen Yu used her life return to transform herself into a burly woman, leading three assassins to charge into the Spirit Hall team's ranks.

With two Soul Kings, Qian Xunhuan and Qian Chongxin, in charge, it would be difficult for a normal Shrek team to defeat them. The reason is simple: Tang Ya was too easy to defeat, and the absurdity far exceeded ordinary people's imagination.

As a control-type Soul Master, Tang Ya relies almost entirely on her control over her Martial Soul for all her control-type Soul Skills, rather than on the Soul Skills on her Soul Rings. This leads to a problem.
